                    [Summary] => PARANG, Maguindanao — The police and the military have tightened security in this municipality after its mayor and vice mayor both received extortion letters threatening to bomb populated areas if they refuse to shell out P2 million in "protection money" each. 


Since 2000, more than 20 bombings have rocked this politically unstable town, home to some 30,000 Muslims and Christians.

Parang Mayor Talib Abo, chairman of the municipal peace and order council, said he was stunned to receive such an extortion letter.

Among the schools being monitored is the government-owned University of Southern Mindanao (USM) in Kabacan town, where there are supposedly radical student organizations.
